Hello, and welcome to Gambia! My name is Joseph. I am an experienced tour guide in Gambia for over 19 years now. My hobbies are bird watching, sightseeing, playing scrabble, chess and adventure. I also represent the Gambia at international chess championships. During my career in this job, I have learnt a lot from my guests too and this has been a great advantage for me. I'm always glad to see people happy and to share my knowledge by speaking and listening to my guests of different works of life and experience, which makes my tour a success and something to remember too. I operate tour within the Gambia and Senegal borders as both countries share culture and traditions alike. The Gambia is one of the most peaceful countries in Africa and west Africa to be specific, with its exotic flora and fauna, while experiencing memorable relations with friendly citizens of this smiling coast, full of sunshine and beautiful open beaches for holiday makers who cherish the warmth and frenzy atmosphere of the Atlantic Ocean. While cruising through one of the most navigable rivers in the whole of Africa, the River Gambia, as it runs from the Futa Njallon highland in Guinea Conakry, emptying into the Atlantic Ocean, you will always have a reason to make a return. I am also very ready to accommodate personalized and Customized tours as unanimously agreed upon, by my guests on a tour for individuals and groups. Welcome to my tours! -Advance Level Tour Guide Certificate -ICM degree in Business Studies I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver

A romantic trip around mangrove swamps on a 16 feet Gambian River craft, upper and lower deck as we cruise through sunset. Feel the opportunity to relax on the roof of the boat and watch seabirds, while also watching local women search for oysters in the Creeks and within the various tributaries joining the main river Gambia. Tour starts at 4 pm GMT. The river Gambia being one of the most navigable rivers, deriving its source from the Futa Djallon highlands in Guinea Conakry, is about 300 nautical miles from the Gambia. The excursion can also be personalized to the taste of potential customers.
